Inspir-Action® provides a powerful combination of nutrients and herbs to relieve symptoms and improve respiratory function. N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) is a well-known mucolytic with the ability to break disulfide bonds and has shown clinical benefits for people with COPD, bronchiectasis, and pulmonary fibrosis. NAC has also been shown to reduce symptoms of influenza-like infection, increase glutathione and sulfotransferase levels, inhibit activation of the NF-kB inflammatory pathway, and modulate immune function.
Proteolytic enzymes can reduce the viscosity of mucous secretions, and in a randomized trial, bromelain reduced symptoms of acute sinusitis in children more effectively than standard treatment. Marshmallow is widely used for coughs and soothing irritated mucous membranes, with mucilaginous and bioadhesive effects attributed to polysaccharides extracted from the root. English ivy extract increases bronchial beta-2-adrenergic activity, relaxing bronchial smooth muscles, and increasing surfactant factors. It has been shown to be an effective treatment for acute bronchitis and improves lung function in asthmatic children when used alongside standard drug therapy. Mullein, wild cherry, and black horehound extracts also have a long history of use for various respiratory tract conditions. These ingredients complement this formula with a unique combination of demulcent, emollient, expectorant, and cough suppressant properties to relieve symptoms.
